AI Technical Summary

Benefits of technology

The patent describes a composition comprising cannabidiol and delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol, wherein the amount of delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol is less than 10 ppm. The ratio of cannabidiol to delta-9-tetrahydrocannabinol is also less than 1:0. The composition can be formulated as a pharmaceutically acceptable excipient and can be prepared by recrystallizing cannabidiol from a mixture of cannabinoids. The technical effect of this composition is that it provides a safer and more effective treatment for diseases such as cancer, pain, and inflammation.

Problems solved by technology

One of the main complications in synthesizing cannabinoids has been the uncontrolled conversion of intermediate compounds to cyclized products, such as Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol.
The noncrystalline nature of cannabinoids has further limited their availability purity.

1) Preparation of Cannabidiol, (1′R,2′R)-5′-methyl-4-pentyl-2′-(prop-1-en-2-yl)-1′,2′,3′,4′-tetrahydro-[1,1′-biphenyl]-2,6-diol

[0337]Cannabidiol was prepared according to the present disclosure.

Scheme 1-1—A Synthetic Route for the Preparation of 4,6-dibromo-Olivetol

[0338]

[0339]Olivetol (16.2 kg dry basis, 0.0897 kmol) was dissolved in dichloromethane (46 L / kg). The solution was cooled to −15° C., where it turned into a thin white suspension. Bromine (29.8 kg, 2.080 eq. with respect to Olivetol) was then added at −15° C. The reaction mixture transformed into a red solution at the end of the addition; no gas evolution was observed. The mixture dwelled for 5 min.

[0340]The process was monitored by IPC (In Process Control). Once the solution was compliant (NMT 0.5%, 4-monobromoolivetol) it was warmed to 0° C. and then poured over a solution of dipotassium hydrogenphosphate (47.2 kg) and sodium sulfite (1.1 kg) in demineralized water (290.9 kg), while maintaining the quench temperature be...

[0356]

Scheme 2-1—Synthesis of 4,6-dibromo-Olivetol

[0357]

[0358]Bromine (1.291 kg, 2.080 eq. with respect to Olivetol) was added to a suspension of Olivetol (0.7 kg, 3.88 mol) in dichloromethane (42 kg, 31.7 L) at −15° C. The reaction mixture was stirred for 5 min and then monitored by IPC to ensure complete conversion (NMT 0.5% 4-monobromoolivetol). An aqueous solution of dipotassium hydrogenphosphate (2.03 kg, 1.5 eq.), sodium hydroxide (0.233 kg, 1.5 eq.), and sodium sulfite (0.049 kg, 0.1 eq.) was then added to the mixture at 20° C. The lower organic phase was separated at 27° C. and dichloromethane was partially distilled off at atmospheric pressure to a volume of ˜6 mL / gOlivetol. Following this, n-Heptane was added (14.35 kg). The solution was further concentrated at 50° C. (900 to 200 mbar) to distill remaining dichloromethane azeotropically and reach a...

Abstract

The present disclosure relates to the preparation of a highly pure cannabidiol compound by a novel synthesis route. The cannabidiol compound can be prepared by an acid-catalyzed reaction of a di-halo olivetol with menthadienol, followed by two crystallization steps. The highly pure cannabidiol compound is produced in high yield, stereospecificity, or both, and shows exceedingly low levels of Δ-9-tetrahydrocannabinol at the time of preparation and after storage.
